Maison Joseph Burrier

DOMAINE MAISON JOSEPH BURRIER

The Burrier family has been one of the most important winegrowing families in southern Burgundy since the 15th century (1469) and is synonymous with excellent, terroir-driven top wines. Today, Frédéric-Marc Burrier runs the family business and acquired a stake in the Domaine de la Rochette in nearby Bussières in 2015. A place that Frédéric-Marc considers to be the ideal location for high-quality, terroir-driven Mâcon white wines.

As president of the local winegrowers' association, Frédéric-Marc was one of the leading proponents of classifying the best climates in the Pouilly-Fuissé region as Premier Crus. Since the mid-1990s, Frédéric has focused on identifying the best sites for each vineyard. Today, more than a dozen different Pouilly-Fuissés wines are produced, as well as wines from Mâcon, St-Véran, Fleurie and Moulin-à-Vent.
